Theology Nerd Throwdown

Follow Jonnie on Twitter. Jonnie joined my in the HBC Headquarters in Redondo Beach. In the podcast we start discussing the resurrection exchange between Marcus Borg & Tony Jones [aka ToJo] & then end up on the necessity of a physical resurrection, atonement, eschatology, evangelical’s Easter concern, and Pannenberg. Attempting to fill in for the BoDaddy is a difficult task but Jonnie did a pretty good job.  I think I will let him back on the TNT w/ the BoDaddy so Bo can make sure we actually stay on topic.  You will notice I actually start a couple lists of theological options and then get distracted by Pannenberg and John Cobb.  The BoDaddy is a pro and knows to limit such theological temptations.  During the podcast we drank the Burning Bush IPA and gave a shout out to 350.org for climate change info. In the podcast we discuss these books: 1) Bodies and Souls, or Spirited Bodies? & Beyond Liberalism and Fundamentalism by  Nancey Murphey 2) Jesus: God & Man by Wolfhart Pannenberg 3) Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time by Marcus Borg 4) Old Testament Theology by Gerhard von Rad   Come Join Tripp & Jonnie for the Conference and Craft Brewery Fun. *** If you enjoy all the Homebrewed Christianity Podcasts then consider sending us a donation via paypal.

In this bonus track Bo chats with Micky Jones about the now infamous Rachel Held Evans post on CNN Religion about young people leaving the church. Then Bo and Tripp chat about what the topic means as youth pastors at Mainline churches. These two conversation were originally recorded earlier this summer as part of a bigger conversation that never came together … but instead of just getting rid of the audio, we wanted to use your responses to frame a future episode of the TNT.

After a Summer break, Tripp and Bo catch up for 18 minutes – then they get down to business! HyperTheist is a term that holds a lot of potential for rupturing the problematic binaries that we have inherited in theology. The first installment of this conversation was last Summer between Tripp and Callid. This is part 2. Next week will be part 3. Let us know if you have any comments or questions so that we can cover them in part 3.   *** If you enjoy all the Homebrewed Christianity Podcasts then consider sending us a donation via paypal.

This edition of the Theology Nerd Throwdown is a smorgasbord of subjects – a cornucopia of concepts – a torrent of topics… you get the idea.  First up is the 30 second definition blind challenge when Bo has to define 3 terms or concepts. This week’s words are:  anointing, perichoresis and glossolalia. Then we chat with Micky Jones about the concept of post-cynical christianity suggested by Jim Wallis. We take a little break for the High-Gravity broadcast and then pick up with the Bible &  Tillich, Hegel, and Process. Our guest this week was Jonnie Russell who guest blogged last week. He was visiting for the High Gravity conversation. One production note: Bo forgot to bring the Mp3 call with Micky for Tripp to hear – so he is commenting blindly. THEN something went wonky with the sound and Bo’s audio on the call to Micky was muted so all of Micky’s comments were edited together to sound like a unified piece. Blogs that will be tied into this episode will be: Micky’s post on post-cynical christianity Bo’s pentecost’s initial aim and historic drift a Radical Theology cliffs-note   *** If you enjoy all the Homebrewed Christianity Podcasts then consider sending us a donation via paypal.

This is the opening session from Subverting the Norm 2 that was held this past Spring.

Subverting the Norm is a website you will want to keep track of for upcoming opportunities to connect.
